Jakobi Meyers Finds End Zone in Easy Week 1 Win

Sunday, September 13, 1:34 PM

Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Jakobi Meyers scored a touchdown in a 34-10 win over the Cleveland Browns. He was one of four pass catchers to find the end zone from a Trevor Lawrence pass. Meyers was outshined by Parker Washington, but it's good to see he was involved in what will be a crowded receiver room for the Jaguars. He had just two targets, but made the most of them with a 32-yard touchdown. Meyers is known for not catching many touchdowns, so it's nice to see him catch one in the first game of the season. The veteran receiver may be relied on more in a tough Week 2 matchup with the Denver Broncos.

Zay Flowers' Injury Not Considered Serious

Monday, September 14, 5:12 AM

Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Zay Flowers (hamstring) is day-to-day with an injury that is not considered serious, according to Ian Rapoport. Rapoport also noted that if it were a playoff game, Flowers would likely have returned, which is great news for his outlook. He was off to a dominant start in Week 1's 41-23 victory over the Indianapolis Colts, hauling in five of six targets for 150 yards and a touchdown, all in the first half. Flowers was playing nearly every snap and had played 55% of the time in the slot before the injury. Fantasy managers should expect Flowers to be inactive, as hamstring injuries can be difficult to overcome on a short turnaround. However, if Flowers can play in Week 2, he should contend for WR1 status against the New Orleans Saints, who allowed 10 receptions and two touchdowns to Lions wide receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown in Week 1.
